Bahía San Pedro


IBA Justification

The site was identified as important in 2010 because it was regularly supporting significant populations of the species listed below, meeting ('triggering') IBA criteria.

Populations meeting IBA criteria ('trigger species'):
Species Current IUCN Red List Category Season Year(s) Population estimate at site IBA criteria met
Black-throated Huet-huet Pteroptochos tarnii LC resident 2007-2009 present A2
Chucao Tapaculo Scelorchilus rubecula LC resident 2007-2009 present A2
Ochre-flanked Tapaculo Eugralla paradoxa LC resident 2009 present A2

The current IUCN Red List category may differ from that which was valid at the time of IBA criteria assessment (2010).
